When electrodes are used to record the electrocardiogram, an electrolyte gel is usually put between them and the surface of the

skin. This makes it possible for the metal of the electrode to form metallic ions that move into the electrolyte gel. Often, after prolonged use, this electrolyte gel begins to dry out and change the characteristic of the electrodes. Draw an equivalent circuit for the electrode while the electrolyte gel is fresh. Then discuss and illustrate the way you expect this equivalent circuit to change as the electrolyte gel dries out. In the extreme case where there is no electrolyte gel left, what does the equivalent circuit of the electrode look like

Answer:

The equivalent circuit for the electrode while the electrolyte gel is fresh

From the uploaded diagram the part A is the electrolyte, the part part B is the electrolyte gel when is fresh and the part C is the surface of the skin

Now as the electrolyte gel start to dry out the resistance R_s of the gel begins to increase and this starts to limit the flow of current . Now when the gel is then completely dried out  the resistance of the gel R_s then increases to infinity  and this in turn cut off flow of current.

The diagram illustrating this is shown on the second uploaded image

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

a) Speed of the reaction = 0.002083 mol/L.s

b) The rate of disappearance of A₂ during this period of time = 0.002083 mol/L.s

c) The rate of appearance of AB₃ = 0.004167 mol/L.s

Explanation:

English Translation

During a study of the reaction rate

A₂ (g) + 3B₂ (g) → 2 AB₃ (g),

it is observed that in a closed container containing a certain amount of A₂ and 0.75 mol / L of B₂, the concentration B₂ decreases to 0.5 mol / L in 40 seconds.

a) What is the speed of the reaction?

b) What is the rate of disappearance of A₂ during this period of time?

c) What is the rate of appearance of AB₃?

Solution

The rate of a chemical reaction is defined as the time rate at which a reactant is used up or the rate at which a product is formed.

It is the rate of change of the concentration of a reactant (rate of decrease of the concentration of the reactant) or a product (rate of increase in the concentration of the product) with time.

Mathematically, for a balanced reaction

aA → bB

Rate = -(1/a)(ΔA/Δt) = (1/b)(ΔB/Δt)

The minus sign attached to the change of the reactant's concentration indicates that the reactant's concentration decreases.

And the coefficients of each reactant and product in the balanced reaction normalize the rate of reaction for each of them

So, for our given reaction,

A₂ (g) + 3B₂ (g) → 2 AB₃ (g)

Rate = -(ΔA₂/Δt) = -(1/3)(ΔB₂/Δt) = (1/2)(ΔAB₃/Δt)

a) Speed of the reaction = Rate of the reaction

But we are given information on the change of concentration of B₂

Change in concentration of B₂ = ΔB₂ = 0.50 - 0.75 = -0.25 mol/L

Change in time = Δt = 40 - 0 = 40 s

(ΔB₂/Δt) = (-0.25/40) = -0.00625 mol/L.s

Rate of the reaction = -(1/3)(ΔB₂/Δt) = (-1/3) × (-0.00625) = 0.002083 mol/L.s

b) The rate of disappearance of A₂ during this period of time

Recall

Rate = -(ΔA₂/Δt) = -(1/3)(ΔB₂/Δt)

-(ΔA₂/Δt) = -(1/3)(ΔB₂/Δt)

Rate of disappearance of A₂ = -(ΔA₂/Δt) = -(1/3)(ΔB₂/Δt) = (-1/3) × (-0.00625) = 0.002083 mol/L.s

c) The rate of appearance of AB₃

Recall

Rate = -(1/3)(ΔB₂/Δt) = (1/2)(ΔAB₃/Δt)

(1/2)(ΔAB₃/Δt) = -(1/3)(ΔB₂/Δt)

(ΔAB₃/Δt) = -(2/3)(ΔB₂/Δt)

rate of appearance of AB₃ = (ΔAB₃/Δt) = -(2/3)(ΔB₂/Δt) = (-2/3) × (-0.00625) = 0.004167 mol/L.s

Hope this Helps!!!

What is the mole ratio of D to A in the generic chemical reaction 3A + B C + 4D
ehidna [41]

Answer:- Mole ratio of D to A is 4:3.

Explanations:- Mole ratio for a chemical reaction is the ratio of the coefficients.

The given generic chemical reaction is:

3A+B\rightarrow C+4D

The numbers written in front of each chemical species in the chemical reaction are their moles. For the given generic chemical reaction the coefficient of A is 3 and that of B is 1. So, the mole ratio of A to B is 3:1.

Similarly if we want to write the mole ratio of C to D then it is 1:4.

We are asked to write the mole ratio of D to A. So, like the other ratios, the mole ratio of D to A is 4:3 as the coefficient of D is 4 and A is 3.

C3H6 and CH4

The empirical number is found by looking at the ratio of the numbers. For example, H20 and H402 have the same empirical formula because the ratio remained similar. 2 H to 1 O.
